Propagation of an ultrashort pulse of light through strongly scattering media generates an intricate spatio-spectral speckle that can be described by means of the multi-spectral transmission matrix (MSTM). In conjunction with a spatial light modulator, the MSTM enables the manipulation of the pulse leaving the medium; in particular focusing it at any desired spatial position and/or time. Here, we demonstrate how to engineer the point-spread-function of the focused beam both spatially and spectrally, from the measured MSTM. It consists of numerically filtering the spatial content at each wavelength of the matrix prior to focusing. We experimentally report on the versatility of the technique through several examples, in particular as an alternative to simultaneous spatial and temporal focusing, with potential applications in multiphoton microscopy.Directed at the strong correlation among the input parameters and long measurement chain, which are difficult for uncertainty analysis with the guide of the expression of uncertainty in the measurement (GUM) method, a novel dynamic stereo vision measurement system based on the quaternion theory is presented to reduce the orthogonality restrictions of shafting manufacturing and application. According to the quaternion theory in the kinematic model of the cameras and the analytical solution of uncertainty with the GUM method, the complete, detailed, and continuous uncertainty results of the full-scale measurement space can be obtained. Firstly, one-dimensional turntables and rigid connections are utilized to form the motion cores and the automatic control carriers in the system. Secondly, the novel measurement model is used in the measurement process to shorten the calibration and measurement chains. Once the system based on the novel measurement model is set up, the analytical solution of uncertainty is utilized in the accuracy process. During the analysis process, the strong correlation among the extrinsic parameters is decoupled by introducing virtual circles and the measurement strategy with the GUM method. Through analyzing the relationship among the attitude angles, the major factors which influence the uncertainties in each axis and the final uncertainty are clarified. Moreover, the analytical continuous uncertainty maps for the uncertainties along each axis, combined standard uncertainty, and the expanded uncertainty are illustrated and the uncertainty variation tendency is declared. Finally, the analytical solution of uncertainty with the GUM method proposed in this paper predicts the uncertainty in the full-scale space and provides a new idea of the uncertainty analysis for the complicated combined measurement system.Aluminum optics are widely used in modern optical systems because of high specific stiffness and high reflectance. Magnetorheological finishing (MRF) provides a highly deterministic technology for high precision aluminum optics fabrication. However, the contamination layer will generate on the surface and bring difficulties for the subsequent processes, which highly limit the fabrication efficiency and precision. In this study, characteristics of the contamination layer and its formation process are firstly revealed through experimental and theoretical methods. Impurities such as abrasives are embedded into the aluminum substrate causing increasing surface hardness. The influence of the contaminant layer on machining accuracy and machining efficiency is analyzed in this study. Based on the analysis, ion beam sputtering (IBS) is induced as a contamination layer modification method. Impurities will be preferential sputtered during the process. Surface hardness and brightness will restore to the state before MRF. Moreover, the thickness of the contamination layer reduces dynamically during IBS because of the bombardment-induced Gibbsian segregation and sputter yield amplification mechanism. Consequently, we proposed a combined technique that includes MRF, IBS and smoothing polishing. MFI8 ic50 Comparative experiments are performed on an elliptical shape plane surface. The results indicate that the efficiency has been increased sevenfold and surface precision is also highly improved. Our research will promote the application of aluminum optics to the visible and even ultraviolet band.The research of two-dimensional (2D) materials with atomic-scale thicknesses and unique optical properties has become a frontier in photonics and electronics. Borophene, a newly reported 2D material, provides a novel building block for nanoscale materials and devices. We present a simple borophene-based absorption structure to boost the light-borophene interaction via critical coupling in the visible wavelengths. The proposed structure consists of borophene monolayer deposited on a photonic crystal slab backed with a metallic mirror. The numerical simulations and theoretical analysis show that the light absorption of the structure can be remarkably enhanced as high as 99.80% via critical coupling mechanism with guided resonance, and the polarization-dependent absorption behaviors are demonstrated due to the strong anisotropy of borophene. We also examine the tunability of the absorption behaviors by adjusting carrier density and lifetime of borophene, air hole radius in the slab, the incident angle and polarization angle. The proposed absorption structure provides novel access to the flexible and effective manipulation of light-borophene interactions in the visible and shows a good prospect for the future borophene-based electronic and photonic devices.Electrons can be accelerated to GeV energies with high collimation via laser wakefield acceleration in the bubble regime and emit bright betatron radiation in a table-top size. However, the radiation brightness is usually limited to the third-generation synchrotron radiation facilities operating at similar photon energies. Using a two-stage plasma configuration, we propose a novel scheme for generating betatronlike radiation with an extremely high brilliance. In this scheme, the relativistic electrons inside the bubble injected from the first stage can catch up with the frequency-downshifted laser pulse formed in the second stage. The laser red shift originates from the phase modulation, together with the group velocity dispersion, which enables more energy to be transfered from the laser pulse to γ-photons, giving rise to ultra-brilliant betatronlike radiation. Multi-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations indicate that the radiated γ-photons have the cut-off energy of GeV and a peak brilliance of 1026 photons s-1 mm-2 mrad-2 per 0.
